Kerlin Bbq

Another exceptional dine-in at Kerlin. I highly recommend this stop in Austin despite not having the same publicity as a Franklin’s or Terry Black’s. My recommendation: Brisket - perfectly tender Sauce - it’s not often that I remark on bbq sauce but Kerlin’s is outstanding and balanced Jalapeño Dill Potato Salad - a creative side with all my favorite ingredients 5/5! Bravo Kerlin!

No wait at all which was nice. The fatty brisket was great, except for the texture. It was almost mushy. It was certainly different, but I won’t deduct a star for that. It still tasted good and I’d happily get it again. The pork ribs were alright. They were fall off the bone tender, but they weren’t too flavorful. When paired with their sauce it was better. It could just be me as I just came from a bbq place just down the road :) The blue cheese coleslaw was delicious!

Hands down the best BBQ I’ve ever had. I’ve never been to Austin so we decided to visit and check out all the food in town. We ate at a few places and they were all good, but, Kerlin’s is the best BBQ in the country and I’ll have words with anyone who says different. I’ve been to a lot of places throughout the US but this is the best, so much so that I was going to stay another day in Austin, just to eat there again. (Sadly work didn’t allow) The brisket, the pork shoulder sandwich, the chopped brisket sandwich they were all amazing. The blue cheese coleslaw is the best coleslaw I’ve ever had. I wish I could eat at Kerlin’s everyday. I can’t say enough about how good this food is.

Was really skeptical of all the really good reviews, but the BBQ here is pretty good. Their kolache is very flavorful especially the brisket kolache. These sell out fast, so I'd recommend that if you want to try some get there before noon. They sold out of the kolaches right after us. The regular brisket could have been a tad more tender, but I think I just prefer a more fatty cut. The sausage link has a hint of heat which I love. Definitely would come back.

The most underrated bbq in Austin. This place is great. I've been to all the big ones in Austin and I'd definitely recommend Kerlin. The line is much shorter and the brisket is just as good. The pork ribs are awesome and they have what no-one else has. They have brisket kolaches which has to be the only place in the world you can get this. They are unreal. You have to check this place out.

I may have found the best kolaches on the planet. Brisket and cheddar -- and they're made by hand at one of the most awesome barbecue trailers in Austin - Kerlin BBQ. So you already know the brisket is gonna be amazing. These kolaches are absolutely incredible stuff. If for some reason you don't know what a kolache, definitely look it up. And know that you are missing out!
